An “over sensitive” bladder can be a temporary reaction to drinking more liquid than you normally do in the day. However, if it becomes persistent or if you suffer bouts of incontinence, it’s wise to see your doctor for an accurate diagnosis and treatment. Myths about what normal bladder activity should be like are aplenty, but we consult our urologist to demystify what happens with an overactive bladder.

I love Dr. Malik so much, best practitioner on the web.
I always ♥ Dr.Malik comments it is in depth precise and comprehensive I love this doctor.
I learn a lot from you. Thanks, Mike
A wealth of knowledge Dr. Rena. Thanks for the info. You definitely rock…
If people would just listen to their bodies they would have a lot less problems and never take your advice from some website that claims to have medical knowledge take it either from your doctor or somebody else that is in the profession like this fantastic lady
125 ozs???? That’s 4 quarts of water A DAY!!!!
How can anyone drink 4 quarts of water a day? It doesn’t have a water addiction. I could never drink that much.
👍🇨🇦🇨🇦🇬🇾🇬🇾👍
When I'm thirsty, the last thing I reach for is a bottle of water – to avoid taking on excess water weight and compromising our precious sustainable resources by leaving a plastic bottle blowing around in the street. An exception of course is sparking water contained in a recyclable glass container such as Perrier or Pellegrino. I also have to admit, I enjoy a glass bottle of soda now and then — and even an occassional bottle of beer. .
This channel is very educational. Muchas gracias!
After my radical right nephrectomy in 1999, my urologist suggested that I drink more water to keep my left kidney flushed out.
My hydration discipline: …..Best I can do is a bottle… 🤔
Something that I discuss with my patients who drink water all day (and pee all night) is that their drive to drink might not be due to the body's need for water, but to mitigate a dry mouth. You and I know that dry mouth is not the same as fluid balance thirst, but most people don't know that, and there are myriad reasons for dry mouth, medication being at the top of the list. Just another conversation to have with our bottle carriers….. jon
When i was in Iraq and Afghanistan we used to drink a lot of water, the ironi of this because the water was in plastic bottles outside on pallets for weeks on the blistering heat, I'm pretty sure that my fellow OIF-OEF vets are probably carrying some type of illness from this.
happpy november bladder health month
I drink about 24 oz of olive oil once a week. If you're reading this, try it.
Its safe to eat sperm?😅
Thanks so much: you are stellar.
Urination is a mystery.
I have only one cup of coffee mid morning. Relieve myself after. But around 14:30 I drink from the fountain at the gym, and almost immediately I want to urinate which I don’t understand. I then go out and drink a litre of beer, at least, and have no desire to urinate until way past bedtime. The colour during the night is a deep yellow, almost orange. What am I doing wrong?
You only need a lot of water if you are working in a hot environment. Sixteen ounces per day is plenty for normal people. I drink one bottle per day with two cups of coffee and a glass of green tea with lemon. If you are not thirsty, don't drink.
I like this video. Much more than your serial ones. As I try to understand my body, this like video hopefully help me living healthy.
Thank you…much appreciated…
Everyone: You need to drink 8 glasses of water per day.
Lithium Carbonate: Hold my beer.
Everything we drink and eat has water in it, so most likely we have it covered.
I need to drink lots of water to avoid constipation.
November is no nut , November is bladder health , what else ? 😂
Nah.. that's definitely a myth… you only need 4 to 5 glasses, that's what I drink a day.
Forty years ago I looked after a patient who had drunk himself into hyponatremic coma on 20 pints of lager. I kid you not! So thanks for mentioning, however obliquely, the toxicity of water taken to excess. And please keep debunking!
I am old. I know a number of highly skill medical professionals whom I trust because I have to trust. You have that magical skill that goes beyond knowledge: you can explain, you can teach.
This was incredibly informative. I wish my urologist gave me half this information.
Did you know people pee on/in each others genitals? Its a bonding experience like kissing or eating together.

Why will you not comment on Intersticial Cystitis. ?? Annoyed as I posted about this long ago. Do you read comments or are just a bot?
